Reason: Temporary semi-protection: Surge in vandalism by new and unregistered users. Hemiauchenia (talk) 14:04, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: High Level IP Vandalism. I cross checked everything, the subject is not even mentioned in the sources provided that I removed. Looks like someone is trying to clear the record of the company (Peloton) by targeting the subject. Some sources even mentioned the subject positively but it was written biasedly. I thought to highlight the issue, thanks FreeBirdie54 (talk) 15:01, 2 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

James Charles

The introduction might have a NPOV violation:

"career has included multiple online controversies, including a widely publicized feud with fellow beauty YouTuber Tati Westbrook in 2019 and his sexting with underage boys in 2021."

I think it should be updated:

"career has included controversies, including a widely publicized feud with fellow beauty YouTuber Tati Westbrook in 2019, and in 2021 his sexting with teenagers later revealed as underage."

At least one of the teens admitted lying about being 18, which is very common for teens do. As currently vaguely written it implies he was seeking underage boys when he has been steadfast he was sexting 18+ teenagers — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:ce95:57b0:2186:e197:d322:fe8 (talk) 20:17, 2 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

From the IP's comments, they appear to have been trying a little breaching experiment, and got the result they appear to have been aiming for. I gather it proves something to them about WP's awfulness ... Acroterion (talk) 12:45, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Firefangledfeathers: Yeah looks like disruptive editing by range IP, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/2405:8D40:4481:FCBF:0:0:0:0/64 LG-Gunther :  Talk  15:27, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
So that range is blocked, but there are more IP edits uninvolved. Can you explain why they should be considered disruptive. My issue is that the page itself is almost entirely unsourced, so it's hard to know which edits are disruptive. This edit of yours also added unsourced content. I'm NOT saying it was disruptive, just that it's hard to tell as an uninvolved admin without more info. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 17:36, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There's been an IP editing the article and arguing on the talk page for weeks now, and it is both time consuming and boring to re-re-re-explain that when a magazine says "Reader's Digest said" that he has an IQ that is statistically impossible, that's not the same thing as the magazine saying that it's true.

Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. That's not a "random" redirect...it's the scientific name (which unfortunately isn't the common name), but there is no need to edit it, so why unprotect? If someone comes up with an article which could replace the redirect, unprotection is just a click away. Lectonar (talk) 08:14, 8 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Lectonar: We shouldn't be protecting pages solely because there is "no reason to edit or move" it. Doesn't that go against the core of our policy? Applying page protection as a preemptive measure is contrary to the open nature of Wikipedia. Sdrqaz (talk) 11:08, 8 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Sdrqaz: it shouldn't have been protected in the first place :) (although there was vandalims/disruption), but when the page was protected...these were other times (as far as I remember). I just don't see the need to unprotect now because, well, there is no need for it, assuming no one wants to write an article. Smacks a bit like WP:BUREAUCRACY to me. And, for the record, I wouldn't resist unprotection. Lectonar (talk) 11:38, 8 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I just think that if we both agree that the original protection was unwarranted, forcing someone (who wants to replace the redirect or refine the redirect categories) request again seems to be even more cumbersome than dealing with it now, given that the request is in front of us already.

Talk:Libs of TikTok

Add {{controversial}} to the talk headers.

Yes, both the article and talk page were protected.

Libs of TikTok is a very controversial social media account because of their homophobia, and the article has been repeatedly edited by people denying the claims, some users using political claims that it’s “woke” or “far-left” in their edit summaries, which most likely played a part in getting both the article and talk page protected.

Outside of Wikipedia, the account has found itself in the news for some of their posts; for example here and here.

2603:8000:CD02:FC64:10BB:FC52:D6E7:925 (talk) 05:05, 8 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Do you think people with those sorts of views will be put off by yet another template? There are three about punishments for contentious topics, and another to check the FAQs without posting. Talk page protection has already been done to filter IPs and new users, do you think another template will put off semi-regular users from disruptive posting? Unknown Temptation (talk) 11:00, 8 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The purpose of these templates isn’t solely to put off users from making these edits (because you’re right; they probably won’t). It is also useful to remind those same editors and others to keep a neutral point of view and discuss any changes that may be contrary to what the article is presenting. Also, pages with these tags are added to the controversial issues category, which can let others know “this page might need a little more patrolling.”
If we go by your logic, we should just get rid of such templates entirely.

Sunscreen

Reason: Hello esteemed administrators and community members,

The ongoing debate regarding the Terminology employed within the Sunscreen page, notably the comparison between Mineral and Petrochemical versus Inorganic Compounds and Organic Compounds, has sparked significant discussion and requires clarity.

Terminology - Mineral and Petrochemical versus Inorganic and Organic Compounds: At the crux of the issue is the intrinsic nature and understanding of substances. It's imperative to note that while everything at its core is chemical in nature, the descriptors we employ can guide public perception and understanding. "Petrochemical" is a term frequently encountered in sunscreen studies, alluding to compounds derived from fossil fuels. This term not only points to their origin but also hints at their nature as organic compounds, given the carbon-based structure inherent to petroleum derivatives. This could potentially confuse consumers, as the term 'organic' in chemistry refers to carbon-based compounds, which is vastly different from the popular understanding of 'organic' in consumer products.

Conversely, the term "mineral" resonates more intuitively with both laypeople and scientists. Minerals are inherently inorganic, meaning they are devoid of carbon. Using this term provides a dual benefit: it aligns with layman understanding while offering precision for those with a scientific background.

Significance of "Organic" & Global Regulatory Standards: The term "organic," especially in the context of cosmetics and personal care products, holds a specific connotation for the general public. When consumers purchase products labeled as "organic," they anticipate items free from synthetic pesticides, herbicides, petrochemicals, and other such ingredients. However, this popular understanding contrasts starkly with the technical definition of "organic compounds," which denotes carbon-based molecules – precisely the kind of compounds some consumers might be looking to avoid. This dichotomy underscores the essential need for clear and accurate communication. Regulatory bodies like the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC) and equivalent entities globally have set standards to protect consumers from such ambiguities. These standards dictate that products marketed as "organic" must adhere to stringent guidelines. Hence, for Wikipedia, it becomes paramount as a leading source of information to mirror these conventions, ensuring readers are not misled and that the platform aligns with the very clarity and transparency that regulatory bodies seek to establish.

FDA GRASE Classification: Highlighting the significance of the FDA's GRASE (Generally Recognized As Safe and Effective) classification is imperative. It's worth noting that only two UV filters currently fall under the GRASE category by the FDA. This classification doesn't explicitly label other filters as harmful, but it certainly underscores the FDA's current perspective. Given Wikipedia's stature as a trusted information source, it's crucial that such details are presented transparently and accurately to avoid potential liabilities and misinformation.

Given the above discussions, I'd like to suggest a re-evaluation of the terminology used on the Sunscreen page, ensuring clarity, precision, and alignment with both scientific and consumer understandings. It's also essential to ensure the content remains protected against potential vandalism, which might mislead or confuse readers. I urge the esteemed community and administrators to consider this perspective and collaborate towards refining the content.

Warm regards, DemocratGreen (talk) 04:55, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Second request, I only get error messages when I try to ask on talk page not allowing any comment there

Introduction may be npov violation

"His career has included multiple online controversies, including a widely publicized feud with fellow beauty YouTuber Tati Westbrook in 2019 and his sexting with underage boys in 2021."

I think should be updated to:

"His career has included controversies, including a 2019 widely publicized feud with fellow beauty YouTuber Tati Westbrook, and in 2021 his sexting with teenagers later revealed to be underage."

He's maintained that all the sexting was done with teens who identified as being 18+ although some have admitted lying. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:ce95:57b0:8da7:b831:2a01:5c79 (talk) 18:40, 3 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What error message are you seeing, exactly?
I'd say your proposed version is problematic as it doesn't quite agree with the body text. The lead summary can't be stating Charle's position as if it were factual, it must summarize what the body text says. The fact is that the boys were underage. What the subject of the article personally says about it isn't really relevant for the lead section of the article. ~Anachronist (talk) 05:05, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, the message is always something like “unexpected error” and won’t let me make any post or start a thread.
The wording might not be perfect but even the BBC stated ‘there were two incidents - one last year and one more recently - where he came to be aware that the person he was exchanging messages with was underage.’ So Wikipedia implying he was seeking out children is misleading and painting him for violence or worse 2602:306:CE95:57B0:8D47:82BA:54B8:29E5 (talk) 06:04, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm inclined to remove PCP from all of them. I find that PCP creates more burden for regular editors than the protection is worth. However, I believe the reason is that if semiprotection were removed, then pending would still be there. ~Anachronist (talk) 03:41, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That logic is more sound on pages that are only temporarily semi'd, since once the semi lapses CRASHlock can pick up the slack at that point. At least, that's the theory. Indef both of them makes no damned sense. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v Source assessment notes 03:49, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed. The PC can be removed as housekeeping on all these. Removing the semi would be a choice to downgrade protection. Courcelles (talk) 04:19, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
While I agree the fact that many pages above need pending changes reset, some of them do actually need a downgrade. Meanwhile, I suppose that some others no longer need any type of protection. I am not certain what the heck those articles would be thus they ® up to the admins to figure them out. I think that several pages need to be discussed first regarding the next edit- and move-protection situation before any action is taken.197.0.93.65 (talk) 05:11, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I would imagine it would be up to the discretion of the responding admin. Both semi and CRASHlock can be handled here; they don't need to all be handled the exact same way. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v Source assessment notes 06:36, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: I'd like to see open discourse with the admin's on the first paragraph. The admin's on that page are not engaging with any rebuttal's and because of this I'd like to see them removed as admin's on the page. Reaching conclusion A, B, or C is fine. Ignoring arguments that have a different conclusion from your own is unacceptable. Cmsmith93 (talk) 01:50, 13 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not unprotectedThat's an argument for continuing protection - you need to find consensus.

Nonsense bureaucracy. User's talk posts were highly inappropriate; the page was deleted but I've also revoked access (I don't know if blocked users can create their own talk pages, but with this user I'm not waiting to find out). Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 22:37, 13 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Ivanvector: The page was already deleted and it looked like the abusive user had moved on when I responded.

Daniel Quinlan (talk) 23:00, 13 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Daniel Quinlan: my apologies, and thank you for taking the time to work through the backlog, but you ought to have said that in the first place, rather than declining with no explanation other than directing the user to a template which directs them to ask a different admin, which does read to me as bureaucracy for bureaucracy's sake.

Okay, so you say it isn't. I believe you, but then what do you want me to do when they continue to push a version which is skewed to their point of view? Just leave it? Revert it under the definition of vandalism? I always learned that the old version stays, but it doesn't work when they keep pressing beyond 3RR. That's why I brought this here, so we would be forced to use other resolutions. dannymusiceditor oops 00:27, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Cambodia

Reason: The article has had only 2 time-set protection occasions, looking at the protection log. Compare this with Thailand's protection log, there are like 13+ time-set protection attempts before it was decided it was disruptive long enough to apply indefinite semi-protection, which is a lot more than this page, which has only seen 2 protection occurrences. Other countries' articles with indefinite semi protection also have many more trials of time-set protection as reading in the logs (Colombia, Bulgaria, Iraq, Serbia, Czech Republic, ...etc) before an indefinite semi-protection is warranted. I discussed with the admin about 3 months ago at the admin's talk page (see "Unprotection" section). This article needs more trials and periods of unprotection to see if disruption is really that bad. 14.191.33.160 (talk) 14:34, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a persuasive argument what-so-ever. Administrators are not obligated to do escalating protection lengths if/when it becomes blatantly clear that the disruption is going to just reoccur once the protection is over. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v Source assessment notes 16:12, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It is not "blatantly clear" that the disruption is going to just reoccur. The disruption only occured when the topic is highly searched. 14.191.33.160 (talk) 16:24, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Not unprotected – Please use an edit request to request specific changes to be made to the protected page.
Yes, it is "blatantly clear". I had unprotected this in March, and disruption resumed to the point where it had to be reprotected again the same month. This experiment has already been tried, and failed. Therefore it is now indef-semiprotected. ~Anachronist (talk) 16:27, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Because the unprotection was during the time when the topic is highly searched, so there is a lot of disruption during that particular period. The experiment is way too thin to say anything. 14.191.33.160 (talk) 16:33, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"Highly searched" by what metrics? —Jéské Couriano v^_^v Source assessment notes 16:41, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Pageview statistics shows that during the disruption in March when it was unprotected, it wasn't even as active a page as in May. The protection is working as it should. ~Anachronist (talk) 16:59, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Forced_pregnancy

Reason: The definition of forced pregnancy that was originally on this page and on others is "Forced pregnancy is the practice of forcing a woman or girl to become pregnant or remain pregnant against her will..." I am part of an abortion debate circle and unfortunately "pro life activists" keep editing this page to take out the part that says forced pregnancy is forcing someone to remain pregnant against their will. This is clearly false. I would appreciate if this page was locked from being edited because it is very useful when it comes to advocating for anti-forced birth policies.

Reason: Frequent removal of deletion templates, by both an account and an IP. The account had received a 4th warning for afd template removal (by me)[31], and now the IP performed the removal. [32] I think after one template removal, the page had been moved to draft by another editor and was immediately re-created as well. [33]. The account is probably block-able at this point, but I was waiting for them to take action after a true "4th" warning before requesting block. —siroχo 16:41, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delwar Hossain Sayeedi

Temporary extended confirmed protection: The page has been semi-protected recently at my request. Unfortunately, even after the semi-protection, biased users came back and removed factual statements regarding the subject. The page had lots and lots of NPOV issues, which I removed, but still, a lot of copy editing is required. On top of all that, it's really extra work for other editors to revert new disrupting edits (in the case of this page, it's mostly me who's housekeeping it). So, to spare me and others the extra workload of reverting bogus edits, I'd request the page to be extended-confirmed temporarily. Recently a relatively inexperienced editor has started to revert my constructive edits without proper justification. I feel like this page has become really prone to an impending edit war, all the more reason to extend its protection. X (talk) 14:54, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As I see it, User:Xkalponik is actually introducing his own bias by specifically removing all the sourced contents that criticizes the trial of the subject and reverting all the other editors who disagree with them. I would rather suggest temporarily blocking Xkalponik from editing the article. LucrativeOffer (talk) 15:03, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
From my reply to you on my talk page: I have not reverted edits by all other users. Re-check the edit history, you'd notice there have been constructive edits by several users, which I did not revert, even I brought back constructive edits by other users myself, again, because they were "constructive." This is a fact, that you seemed to have altered, and I put your assertions and accuracy into question. I explicitly said, I did not remove those entirely, but I rewrote those in the latter sections in an objective manner. I even added new sources along with new lines that describe the claims better. And I removed and rewrote factual error claims. Those were comments by his supporters, and sources reported that saying, X and Y commented/opinionated "this and that." These do not constitute facts, but comments, which can be added in the controversy/reaction section. "specifically removing all the sourced contents that criticizes the trial of the subject", is another factually errored assumption by you. Look closely, I myself even added content and sources that critiqued the trial. X (talk) 15:09, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
These contents deserve to be in the lead that summarizes the article as per WP:MOS but you are removing them to retain a lead that goes with your POV. LucrativeOffer (talk) 15:26, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I urged you to not start an edit war, which you now have started, but I'm not willing to participate in it. I'm not questioning whether or not that content deserves to be on the lead or not. The line from lead, which I assume you're brawling about is: "Several international observers condemned the verdict and suggested the charges to be politically motivated and a case of mistaken identity." This is a factually errored statement. Several groups critiqued the trial and did not "suggest" the charges to be politically motivated. They mentioned that the trial was not up to international standards, and several Bangladeshi supporter groups of the subject have accused the trial to be "politically motivated and a case of mistaken identity." There's a huge difference there. The fact that the trial was controversial, can be on the lead, and several groups, namely Human Rights Watch and Amnesty raised concerns over the fairness of the trial process, can also stay on the lead, cause they're facts, but the earlier statement is not. Anyway, I'm adding that latter line into the lead. Please do not continue the edit war furthermore. It's really unwarranted now.
Anyway, you've ignored all the previous points I addressed. And now you've drifted away towards what should and should not be on the lead. But before, you were throwing false and incorrect assumptions at me. X (talk) 15:35, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: User @LucrativeOffer even have removed the semi protection and multiple issues templates. I'm not going to participate in this brawl any further before an administrative action. X (talk) 15:48, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Lectonar: I see 26 reversions since the page was unprotected June 8th, but only 8 in the preceding 2 years while it was semi-protected. Prior to that, it was protected several times with some hidden edits as well. I suspect pending-changes will produce at least as many disruptive edits (I've seen cases where disruptive edits actually increase in number with pending-changes turned on). If you think pending changes is the better option, we can try it out and see how it goes. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 07:58, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Daniel Quinlan: I have seen the oppsite...pending-changes protection produces frustration with the vandals, as the edit does not go "live" immediately (so I do not see real disruption there, it's just one more click to revert), so people tend to give up. Anyway, in cases like these I use pending-changes protection for some months; I watchlist, and try to evaluate if the the article needs semi-protection.

User:Versageek/Talk/Archive/2

Hello, I am correcting a tracked syntax error on Wikipedia called the Tidy Font bug and this page has three occurrences of this error in the following signature. Due to changes with MediaWiki in 2018, any link written in the format of <font color>[link]</font> with the color stated outside the link does not display the intended colors and instead defaults to standard blue for most browsers. This change will fix three of the remaining nineteen Tidy Font errors within Userspace.

If you would, please change: 

<font color="amaranth">[[User:NuclearWarfare|NuclearWarfare]]</font>''''' <sup><font color="green">[[User talk:NuclearWarfare|contact me]]</font></sup>'''''<sub><font color="purple">[[Special:Contributions/NuclearWarfare|My work]]</font></sub>

Full disclosure, I made a Protected Edit request here in May which Xaosflux declined on the basis that it was a PE Request. Xaosflux has no objection to the change requested, only the method used to ask for this change per this conversation.

Commanders–Cowboys rivalry

Reason: One user, (Frank Anchor), has been "edit-warring" on this page and reverting all edits and does make any attempt to reach a consensus on multiple occasions. In particular, he constantly reverts or deletes edits concerning the Washington Commander bringing sideline benches into Cowboys Stadium. Multiple editors have added the same material back to which he repeatedly reverted. Furthermore, when approached for dialogue he is not addressing any of the points of why his edits were reverted on multiple occasions. The Cowboys-Washington rivalry page is for highlighting events or games that are meaningful to the rivalry itself. The topic he keeps reverting from multiple editors is the event where the Cowboys brought benches with their team logo into FedEx field, to which the Washington head coach responded, "That's part of the gamesmanship." And then, the Washington team responded by bringing their own hot seat benches with their logos into a temperature-controlled stadium. That is clearly a pertinent event for the rivalry. Multiple news sources, Wikipedia editors, and the head coach have spoken specifically about this event. His statement of "this is standard practice across the league" has no stated source behind it and is not relevant to this particular incident. While this does not meet the 24-hour window of edit-warring, the intent to continually push his own agenda on this page without collaboration or consensus is very apparent.

Barry Morgan (bishop)

Reason: IP editors - who may be the same editor, or a group - have on four or five occasions amended the introduction to the article to delete a description of the subject as a "retired Welsh Anglican bishop", which I would have thought an entirely uncontroversial description, and entirely supported by the various sources which are cited in the main text of the Article. On the earlier occasions no reason was given. On the last occasion when I reverted the edit, I directed a warning to the last editor, and asked for an explanation of why the description was repeatedly being deleted. All that appeared on the Talk page was "The words are confusing. More than one description accurately." I do not understand the meaning of this, and it does not seem to be a bona fide attempt to engage with my request for a discussion. As the deletions have all been made by editors identified by IP, semi-protection would seem adequate. Ntmr (talk) 13:07, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

User:Versageek/Talk/Archive/4

Likewise to my previous request earlier this week, I'm addressing Tidy font errors and had no response from Versageek for earlier's archive 2 request. Due to changes with MediaWiki in 2018, any link written in the format of <font color>[link]</font> with the color stated outside the link does not display the intended colors and instead defaults to standard blue for most browsers.

The following three changes will correct five of the remaining sixteen Tidy font errors in Userspace.

TWO cases of:

I want to prevent the article when I leave it being reverted back to its unreadable state.

User talk:WhisperToMe/Archive2 and others

Reason: I'd like access to these 15 pages to address the Tidy Font bug errors and other WP:LINT found within, as I have with similar past requests. Each of these pages was selfprotected by the former admin, so asking the protecting admin prior to this request is not needed. I have Extended Confirmed access, so that or lower is fine, whatever is appropriate for each.

If I have overlooked anything that would be an issue, or you feel that any page needs to be temporarily lowered to Extended Confirmed and returned to Full after I've addressed all Lint issues, that is fine (temporaries would be addressed first, and I'd let you know when finished if any). Happy to discuss anything if you have further questions. Thank you. Zinnober9 (talk) 17:28, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I don’t know if this is a good idea. Editing your talk page interrupts an AWB task, so we’re you to be accidentally making a semiautomatic mess, editing that talk page would be the optimal way a non-admin could get your attention… Courcelles (talk) 17:15, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@LindsayH, meant to ping. Courcelles (talk) 17:16, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the ping; well, i see your point, however, when i am pinged or messaged on my talk page (LindsayH, not Kahtar), i respond as soon as it is seen, which has never yet been an issue. The most recent i remember is this one, in which case i responded within the hour. The issue is that Kahtar doesn't edit every day, though LindsayH almost inevitablly does, and looks at the watchlist/notifications, so catches anything on user_talk:LindsayH, whereas user_talk:Kahtar can go days without being checked. Seems to me that anyone having an issue with an edit would want to tell me on the page with is going to get the better/quicker response. Happy days, ~ LindsayHello 18:02, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hmmm, looking at the talk-page to be protected...I don't even see much attempts to contact you there over the years (5 attempts before redirection was done, and only the bot afterwards). Furthermore, the full protection would also prevent YOU from editing it (which might be necessary someday?). On a sidenote: why is the second account for semi-automated edits even needed? This whole kittencaboodle strikes me as a bit (over-)complicated, but perhaps I am too old :). Anyway, overall I wouldn't protect: not enough activity on said talk-page, and possible technical repercussions. Just my 2 cents. Lectonar (talk) 10:46, 21 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No worries, Lectonar; it was simply in order to be sure i see any messages because i never look at the page. As you point (or Courcelles) point out, however, it does prevent me from continuing with AWB before it's checked, so consider this withdrawn.

User talk:Indubitably/Archive 16 and others

Reason: I'd like access to these 20 pages to address the Tidy Font bug errors and other WP:LINT found within, as I have with similar past requests. Each of these pages was selfprotected by the former admin, so asking the protecting admin prior to this request is not needed. I have Extended Confirmed access, so that or lower is fine, whatever is appropriate for each.

If I have overlooked anything that would be an issue, or you feel that any page needs to be temporarily lowered to Extended Confirmed and returned to Full after I've addressed all Lint issues, that is fine (temporaries would be addressed first, and I'd let you know when finished if any). Happy to discuss anything if you have further questions. Thank you. Zinnober9 (talk) 10:40, 21 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. The article's already indefinitely EC protected; if people are doing this (not obvious from the history), I think full protection is a bit of a blunderbuss here—limiting editing to just administrators at this moment would cause more problems than it could possibly solve.

Halloween (1978 film)

Temporary semi-protection Over the past few days, an IP editor has been making a change to wording that I’ve challenged and given supporting reason for doing so via edit summary. IP editor repeatedly reverts with no explanation or discussion. NJZombie (talk) 13:32, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Warn the user appropriately then report them to AIV or ANI if they continue. @NJZombie: As it is the same IP every time, talking to them directly might be a good starting point. Wikipedia editing is not what one would call intutitive, and if they edit via mobile, they might not even easily see the edit summaries. If they stay mum, warn and go to AIV.

Reason: A vague video of a T-10 being used by the Russian Armed Forces has been going around on twitter, which has caused people to go to the T-10 wikipedia page and changing the service-life data.

Would like confirmation before reverting under WP:BMB though.(I am not watching this page, so please ping me if you want my attention.). SSSB (talk) 15:07, 26 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This is absurd. Requester alleges unsourced content then makes an allegation entirely unbacked by evidence. He's either too lazy or too stingy to ask the Ministry of Justice for a copy of the cited source. 81.141.44.156 (talk) 16:28, 26 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Looking into this a bit more closely, requester says in his edit summary he's reverting because the sources are "not in the public domain." That's not a valid reason - if it was no document which came into existence less than 70 years ago could be cited. He's also a liar because he reverted before posting here.

Trajan

Reason: For months (see my interventions in the article and in the talk:Trajan page) there has been high level of vandalism and disruption. Edit wars have been waged without consensus and openly against the consensus we twice reached on the talk page. Even more importantly the disruption has been caused by socks of User:JamesOredan, an user permanently blocked for having 28 (!) socks pushing this weird Spanish suprematist agenda, in this article it was most notably User:Venezia Friulano. Venezia too has now been blocked, but immediately after this two IP users (numbers, not usernames) are again making the same edits Venezia made (obviously these are some IPs of Venezia/James, they even use the same language) again with no consensus, again pushing for the same agenda. Basically all wikipedia rules have been violated for a long time. I am constantly restoring the article but I think it's time for protection towards them.

I can copy and paste diffs one by one if needed. Please do. All I'm seeing is an account doing a few innocuous wikilinks which are being reverted, but I might be missing something. If you can just provide diffs to three disruptive edits it may help me understand. Thanks. Chetsford (talk) 14:55, 27 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Current evasion: [62]; [63]; [64]; [65]. Some previous edits before block: [66]; [67]; [68]; [69]; [70]; [71]; [72]. It is warring to overlink, but it would seem block evasion alone to persist in making nuisance edits is rationale enough. 2601:19E:4180:6D50:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 14:58, 27 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps you can request a range block at SPI? I don't feel comfortable protecting a page over a wikilink or a comma (particularly a grammatically correct one).

R U Next?

Reason: High level of IP vandalism. I would like to highlight that the article itself had been facing an ongoing series of vandalism since 25 August, as a result of the editors in question who are repeatedly changing the information, most possibly because of the anger of many fans over the elimination of Chanelle, one of the K-pop reality show's most popular trainees, and it was also concerning that they contained edits that not only spread misinformation but also amounted to insults of the show's judges (especially Lee Hyun) and some other trainees who still remained on the show, and the changing of the show's title from R U Next to R U Rigged. It is understandable should people be upset that their fan favorite was eliminated, but nonetheless it is unfathomable for people to spread misinformation just because of them wanting to vent their anger (or put up allegations of the show being rigged and judges being biased). I request for a protection of the article for the maximum period of time as permissible by Wikipedia standards to curb such blatant disregard for editor etiquette and conduct and also for the sake of deterrence.

All In (2023)

Reason: High level of unsourced information, and unconstructive and disruptive IP edits. Sceptre (talk) 19:40, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - there is a dispute here about a questionable attendance statistic, as well as some straight-up vandalism. I personally would decline to protect since that would give an editorial advantage to the couple of experienced editors reverting every change and refusing to discuss, but I'm one of the ones that was reverted so I'm not going to do anything here. It is very plainly a content dispute, though, notwithstanding a few vandal edits in the midst of things. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 20:30, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
For what it's worth, I haven't seen any reliable sources have questioned the attendance figure (although admittedly, Meltzer is probably still stuck in London because Heathrow ATC collapsed earlier), and there are plenty of reliable sources for the number of tickets distributed. What I have seen, though, is drive-by editing and then people posting on social media about "the real numbers" for clout, so it's clear disruptive editing.

It has basically no edits and definitely no disruptive edits, so I assumed you meant to request protection for its target, cult of personality.

Criminalization of homosexuality

Reason: Persistent editing against consensus by two or three IP users (or just one person on a range), and a newly registered user. (These appear to be making similar edits to recent block-evading sock at Capital punishment for homosexuality, now semi-protected, and in same vein as earlier socks that have been active on LGBT-related articles, long-term). AukusRuckus (talk) 10:12, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Under WP:PRAM and WP:RAILROAD this request should be denied they are just trying to eliminate opposing viewpoints. Anything this user sees as an opinion they disagree with, they try to use templating and using mod actions to quell discussion by locking conversations. WP:BULLY should not be allowed and neither should Aukusruckus' empty allegations against users he dislikes. I'm being civil but he has not reciprocated, this action is unnecessary and deplorable. I urge you to throw it out and reject it. 104.152.222.44 (talk) 11:56, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Semi-protected for a period of two weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. While this pretty clearly comes under CTOPS as GENSEX, since it has not yet had to be protected before and the disruption is relatively recent, I'm treating it as an ordinary administrative action so it's not going to be logged. However, I have added a CTOPS notice to the talk page (as well as to that of the capital punishment article), so next time, if there is one, will be different.

It should be noted regarding the IP's tantrum above that a) that IP never added anything to the article yet felt compelled to come here ... OK, it's probably on a dynamic range, and b) the edits added by the IP on the same range failed to include sources.

If, as claimed, it is likely a sock of a blocked user, we need to get all the known IPs it's used and see if we can calculate a range for blocking. For now, that's beyond the scope of this page. Daniel Case (talk) 18:31, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The autoconfirmed protection are nothing. Any vandal account achieves that status after 4 days with few edits and they remove sourced content, which is not tracked by patrollers. This is happening on this article for a long time. Pending change protection at least keeps articles traceable. Moreover, can you tell me why this edit [77] was not reverted back, when it was done half months ago.? -Admantine123 (talk) 06:45, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Declined. I think there's a good-faith misunderstanding here: pending-changes is actually a lower level of protection than autoconfirmed, so it wouldn't be helpful in this case.

Victory Liner

Reason: As I previously requested on August 28, the article really needs semi-protection due to continuously disruptive edits made by IP. If the article continuously not protected, this could be violate WP:DIS, also affected Partas. - Jjpachano (talk) 08:17, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

2023 Speaker of the United States House of Representatives election

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Page has now been protected three times due to being targeted by a sockfarm, and now as soon as the third protection ended, the page has started being targeted again. May be worth semi protecting for a much longer period. ser! (chat to me - see my edits) 10:31, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
